### "Excellent alternative for personal use"

November 2, 2021

5.0

I started using Sejda in early 2020, almost two years ago. At the time I was looking for a tool precisely to manipulate PDFs. I've tested other free and paid solutions, especially MasterPDF, but the one I use continuously is Sejda.

Pros

Sejda can do a lot of things and still have a clean, intuitive interface, with virtually no learning curve. It has a desktop application, which makes all the difference to me, there is no need to use web apps. You can quickly manipulate PDFs, such as filling out forms sent in PDFs, inserting an illustration containing your physical signature of the document (not a digital signature, just an illustration representing your signature). I think of everything, what I like the most is the speed at which I can do all this with Sejda. It's not time consuming.

Cons

To be honest, I have no complaints about the tool. For my use it works perfectly. Of course, there are many things that the tool doesn't do, and for that it is necessary to use another tool. Especially reading and tagging PDFs, a constant demand in many management professions, cannot be done in Sejda.

MasterPDF is more time consuming and confusing to use and Adobe Acrobat has lower cost-benefit.

### "Sejda Positive Review. "

March 4, 2025

5.0

I have had a great experience with Sejda. It is my go to when I need to edit any PDF.

Pros

So easy to use in browser, takes no time to setup, and extremely easy interface.

Cons

Nothing, Sejda is honestly so useful and I really am happy using it.

Adobe is so clunky, I hated using it, and it is not simple at all. I only need some basic features, and Adobe is needlessly complicated.

### "A comprehensive Set of PDF tools"

December 22, 2018

3.0

A handy PDF editing tool for your PC also available online that is like a combination of various tools rather than a single software that can do all of these things. I use this as my primary PDF conversion tool on the desktop.

Pros

several tools available some very unique tools like' breakdown by bookmarks' available on the web as well as desktop very nice appearance pretty stable, rarely encounter errors, does its job also has the ability to convert between various other document formats and PDF and converts them very fast merging two files is quite advanced compared to other PDF editors. you can even alternate and mix two documents which come very very useful at times several free to use features (3-tasks per day) which is more than enough for occasional users updates so frequently with new features and fixes flexible pricing options, including even weekly.

Cons

you first choose what you want to do and then choose the file. a pretty unusual and problematic approach devoid of most file editing capabilities, so you can not use it to compose a PDF subsciption is too costly. it will cost you as much as microsoft office 365 which seems way to much for a PDF tool

### "Sejda is an indispensable utility that should be implemented in every office environment."

January 10, 2023

5.0

Sejda prominently offers a wide selection of tools that's catalysed my workload ever since trying out its free version. The user experience is overall amazing & everything looks polished & easy to access at first glance. It's just a convenient tool that really makes a night-and-day difference when taking on office-related work.

Pros

The shear amount of features, silky-smooth desktop & web interface & the ridiculously-low subscription compelled me to stick with Sejda for my PDF-handling workload. Both the website & desktop versions equally offer tons of must-have features such as PDF conversion, size-reduction, merging & editing as well as page extraction, deletion & watermarking all of which I find myself using regularly.

Cons

While the OCR functionality is outstanding here, it can sometimes take its sweet time processing Arabic text (especially with content apparently using the bold, Sultan font). I hope to see an accelerated performance in future updates.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Sejda

Sejda simply offers a vast amount of features that solely focuses on bringing the best user experience when handling large PDF documents. The alternatives I sought didn't seem to possess as many features for their asking price to dissuade me from using Sejda from the get-go.

### "Great tool with powerful functions"

May 7, 2024

5.0

Pros

I can crop things, edit fonts and more on pdfs very easily for a very minimal cost.

Cons

The interface moves a bit too much, with so many popups flying around sometimes you do get lost.

### "limit of free task"

January 5, 2023

5.0

Im used to Sejda but free use limitation is really not helpful and prompted to look for another software, can you make it ten tasks a day instead or put free limitation back to three tasks an hour?

Pros

easy to use for merging editing and my works are clean when using this software.

Cons

the free limitation from three tasks an hour became three tasks a day

### "Great for basics"

January 9, 2023

5.0

My go to app for basic pdf conversions and digital signing

Pros

When I have to do basic changes to a pdf or convert doc to PDF, Sejda is usually the app I go to owing to its simple interface and ready-to-use tools.

Cons

As soon as you try to make big changes to a document, the app starts acting up. Filling a form on sejda is not ideal and when you rearrange or rotate pages, it messes up some of the data that you have to manually readjust.

### "Just When I Thought It Didn't Have Everything I Needed- It Had Everything I Needed "

March 14, 2021

5.0

Pros

What I like most about Sejda is the ability to have everything done on either desktop or browser. They have everything I need to edit PDFs like add links, add in text fields such as paragraphs, checks, and drop-down menus. It's extremely easy to use, and has all the basic features you'll ever need! The price is fantastic for the services they provide, it's really your one stop shop for PDF editing!

Cons

One feature I would like to see is if you're adding text fields to a PDF that there's the option to duplicate more than one box at a time. I'm often making fillable tables, so the ability to duplicate a whole row would save me lots of time!

### "A wide range of possibilities"

August 6, 2019

4.0

I will keep on using the app for free.

Pros

I like that with Sejda you can do pretty much everything with your pdf files. It's an app that saves you from using many different websites for different tasks. I like that they have a version that I can install on my desktop and not care about internet access.

Cons

I hate their pricing model and how they push you to buy by limiting what you can do with the app. Often times I would work for 30 min over a pdf just to find out in the end that I am limited because of using the free version and if I want to get my pdf I need to pay. Also the number of manus is crazy! Over 40 options that you need to read and find the task that you try to perform. Only then the app starts. I'd prefer to open the app and then find the functionality I need like every other normal program.

### "What I'd Give My Grandpa"

December 12, 2019

5.0

Sejda is the best software of this type I've encountered so far. They seem to have cracked the problem of making a decent PDF editor with an appropriate learning curve (that is, one that's roughly the same as a standard word processor).

Pros

Sejda is a simple and intuitive PDF editor. If you need to sign a document, add annotations, redact text, add/remove pages, insert an image, or create interactive forms (haven't used this feature myself) this is the best option I know of. It's well-suited for people with less than stellar technical savvy and launches in a web browser. What isn't there to like?

Cons

There's nothing I dislike about it. So far it has met all my needs and expectations. There really isn't anything I'd change about it.

### "Now its easier to edit PDF files online"

October 18, 2019

4.0

Editing PDF files online has become convenient since this app can be used online through any web browsers.

Pros

The ability to use this PDF editor for free from any browser and any operating system is what I like the most about the Sejda PDF editor.

Cons

Sejda PDF editor lacks optical character recognition feature and supports image uploads up to five images only.

### "Easy and free to use entire PDF solution"

December 24, 2020

4.0

Sejda PDF has become a one-stop solution for all sorts of PDF-related tasks such as editing, conversion, merge, split, fillup, sign & protect, and so on.

Pros

I like the Sejda PDF editor's web application the most as it enables me to upload PDF files and start editing in no time. Other than this, I love its password protection feature that lets me secure my PDF documents online.

Cons

Working with bulk PDF documents is not practical with its free version. Furthermore, this application is not portable as it is not available on mobile devices so far.

It helped split very easily my pdf file.

### "Recensione Sejda da studente"

October 22, 2024

4.0

Pros

Sejda è un editor di file PDF davvero completo e pieno di funzioni utilissime raggruppate in un unico software, essendo uno studente di un Liceo lo utilizzo da moltissimo tempo e posso parlarne benissimo. La caratteristica che mi è piaciuta di più è che il software puù essere utilizzato completamente online senza dover scaricare alcun programma, questo rende l'utilizzo molto più immedato e più compatibile con varie categorie di dispositivi e di sistemi operativi diversi

Cons

Come ho appena detto, è un software davvero molto completo e anche se alcune funzioni magari possono essere più macchinose da utilizzare non ha particolari lati negativi che rendono l'editing dei file PDF complicato

### "Great for simple PDF edits"

March 26, 2020

4.0

Despite its limitations, Sejda PDF is a powerful application that is easy to access (online or as a desktop app), intuitive to use, and is fairly priced. I use the software all the time, and I'm usually able to accomplish what I need within the limits of the free version - but if I need more, I might purchase a short-term subscription, which is affordable and much cheaper than alternative programs. This program is still much less powerful than Adobe Acrobat Pro, but it suits my needs very well most of the time.

Pros

This program can do almost anything you'd need to do with PDF documents - converting to a text or image file, merging or splitting pages, compressing based on file size, editing the document, e-signing documents, and more. It's also free to use up to three times a day, and I can usually get my tasks done within those three uses. (The premium version is fairly priced, and much more affordable than Adobe Acrobat, but of course Acrobat is a much better, more powerful application.)

Cons

The program (both the desktop version and the online version) is divided by function (such as merging documents, converting, editing...). This can sometimes make it cumbersome and inefficient to accomplish many different kinds of tasks in one go. This is especially significant if you are using the free version, because you are limited to 3 tasks per day. However, it's still a useful tool that works relatively well, and can save you a lot of money if you only need a PDF editor every now and then.

### "It works the way I want every time!"

December 30, 2021

5.0

Editing pdfs was a very hard task for me until I came across Sejda. It's a very efficient tool and any person can use it. It does not require any expertise to use and is very time-saving. It is totally worth having.

Pros

I really like how I can easily edit the text without converting the whole document to word. It's like I'm continuing writing the original document, with the font style, size all the same. I also love that I can access the tool from anywhere as long as I have an internet connection. It's a very time-saving tool that has all the features you would want in a pdf editor, which could be editing, merging, annotating you name it!

Cons

There really isn't anything I dislike about sejda but it could be a lot easier if i could duplicate the text fields

### "Worth the money, recommended to all"

March 10, 2022

5.0

It's excellent, it's definitely worth the money. It is a simple tool and with all the needed basic features. I definitely recommend it to my friends and colleagues. I just wish I had discovered this product before, since it is cheaper than some of the other similar products with as many features.

Pros

It made my life easier in so many ways. Since I work in software industry, I have to deal with online documents daily. Editing them, signing different documents, editing , updating, conversion features in it are excellent. Instead of having to print document and signing and then scanning and uploading it, I can simply use the signature feature and gets the job done.

Cons

I have no complaints. The only thing I can point out is that it'll be better if they added more fonts, though the current fonts does the job for me.

Overall, Sejda has resolved my PDF related works on the GO that too with ease.

Pros

The best thing about Sejda is that it offers basic tools for free for users. From E-Signature to editing PDF to making changes in them, Sejda offers all.

Very helpful for all your PDF editing needs. Would recommend!

Pros

I especially like that with Sejda, they have a whiteout option for PDFs and that it lets you erase previous remarks and comments.

Cons
